This repository contains my revised solutions to the Advent of Code puzzles in Python.
The top ingredients to these solutions are:
- My original code - optimized (i.e., rushed) for minimal time-to-submission (2022 and following).
- Deeper insights into the problem domain - gathered by pondering on the puzzle after submission.
- This might improve the complexity class of the algorithm.
- Thorough refactoring aiming at clean code.
- The solution is transformed into unit tests (for each star at least one test case).
- DRY: Recurring logic is extracted into an API module (which has its own unit tests).
- A final double-check with the ideas floating around on the subreddit is also helpful. I might pick up some ideas from there.
My puzzle inputs are not part of this repository, as stipulated by the rules. Instead, they reside in a private submodule.
In case you wonder, my personal statistics (times, ranks, scores) are found here.
